issues i need help!!!

I don't know if this is the right place to put my concern but  my husband told me to ask you guys if its a problem for him to bleed when he is pooping (sorry tmi) b/c when he is going to wipe he also has some blood as well. Its only when he has something spicy or has a really hot pepper. I think its more b/c we've had some food with spices in it and  maybe that's what it is but I'm not so sure. Has this ever happened to anyone??? Should we be do concerned??? Please help us out!!?,

All physicians are taught to take any rectal bleeding seriously and rule out the bad things first. The only way one can say this is a benign problem is to first rule out the malignant ones with a colonoscopy. Lower sources such as hemorrhoids would be common to cause his but this is not reliable.

He needs to consult his physician about this.  

If he knows spicy foods or hot pepper does this to him......he should just simply avoid them.  

Again.....consult a physician.
